Newbie question

Could anyone tell me a good assortment of pin stock to get? I was looking at jantz supplies and there seem to have such a wide range of both brass and nickle. I'm looking for stuff that fits mostly case and camillus (bolster and scales). Is there a standard? Also rivets, anyone know the size on a case sodbuster jr.? Will the one on jantz fit? Thanks for any info.

Yeah, I read that, just trying to avoid buying every single size. If thats the route I have to go I guess I will. Thanks though.

to be well equipped you need them all. A hobbiest can get away with 1/16 and 3/32" then just turn down the 3/32" to fit if it's too large. Thats usually what I have to end up doing anyway to get a good fit

Thank you, would you happen to know which rivet size fits the sodbuster jr?
